# CVE-2026-50551: SiYuan: Stored XSS to RCE via Unsanitized Attribute View Asset Cell Content

**Signal:** Critical, preconditions apply. Severe if exploited, but exploitation needs conditions that may not apply to you. (Computed from CISA KEV, EPSS and CVSS; not an editorial verdict.)

## Should you act?

- Not in CISA KEV , but CISA’s SSVC assessment records a public proof-of-concept, so attack code exists.
- EPSS 0.8% , percentile 55: FIRST’s model estimates a 0.8% chance of exploitation activity in the next 30 days, higher than 55% of all scored CVEs (moderate). EPSS is a probability, not a verdict.
- Needs an account (low (any account)). Exposure depends on who can log in.
- Only applies if your dependency tree includes github.com/siyuan-note/siyuan/kernel (Go) < 0.0.0-20260628153353-2d5d72223df4, fixed in 0.0.0-20260628153353-2d5d72223df4 . Check your lockfile, including transitive dependencies.
